1. Nuclear power and solar power: Goal: Which is better for people? Argue Solar power is better than Nuclear power Points: Pollution free – production Safety Convenience Human beings have been using fossil fuels for hundreds of years‚ satisfying the demand of industrialization. The behavior of using fossil fuels‚ on the other hand‚ causes huge pollution‚ such as soil‚ water and atmosphere contamination. In addition‚ fossil fuels‚ such as solid‚ liquid and gas‚ are all facing on the exhaustion

With an increasing awareness in the fight against global warming and greenhouse gas emissions‚ governments around the world are looking for alternative sources of energy. These include wind‚ solar and hydro energy sources‚ known as renewable sources (Able to be regrown). However‚ one fuel source in particular is currently being used and produced to power both vehicles and electrical generators around the world; biofuels. Biofuels are renewable gas or liquid fuels made from plant matter such as corn

In “The Story Of Bottled Water” by Annie Leonard disputes the need for bottled water in our everyday life‚ insisting that they hurt us way more than benefit us. Annie Leonard explains in her video that bottled water is less regulated‚ less quality and basically less affordable than tap water (1). She believes that the bottled water industry are those who cause us to believe that tap water is unsafe through their misleading advertising (2). Another important example in the video also explains is the

ADC0803‚ ADC0804 ® Data Sheet August 2002 8-Bit‚ Microprocessor-Compatible‚ A/D Converters FN3094.4 Features The ADC080X family are CMOS 8-Bit‚ successiveapproximation A/D converters which use a modified potentiometric ladder and are designed to operate with the 8080A control bus via three-state outputs. These converters appear to the processor as memory locations or I/O ports‚ and hence no interfacing logic is required. The differential analog voltage input has good commonmode-rejection

Electricity generated by burning fossil fuels such as coal‚ oil and natural gas‚ emits carbon dioxide‚ nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides -- gases scientists believe contribute to climate change. Solar thermal (heat) energy is a carbon-free‚ renewable alternative to the power we generate with fossil fuels like coal and gas. This isn’t a thing of the future‚ either. Between 1984 and 1991‚ the United States built nine such plants in California’s Mojave

The Solar System The majority of the solar system is made up of the sun and all of the planets that orbit it. There are also moons‚ comets‚ asteroids‚ dust‚ gas‚ and dwarf planets. The sun makes up about 98 percent of our solar system. Because of the suns large mas it pulls every thing in the solar system towards it. The planets orbit around the sun because of the sun pulling it towards it and the planets trying to fly outer space at the same time‚ which balances it out. It was once believed that

Already‚ the sun’s contribution to human energy needs is substantial — worldwide‚ solar electricity generation is a growing‚ multibillion dollar industry. But solar’s share of the total energy market remains rather small‚ well below 1 percent of total energy consumption‚ compared with roughly 85 percent from oil‚ natural gas‚ and coal. Those fossil fuels cannot remain the dominant sources of energy forever. Whatever the precise timetable for their depletion‚ oil and gas supplies will not keep up

Environmental Benefits of Solar Power [pic] The conservation of non-renewable energy resources Photovoltaic (PV) solar power eases the usage of diminishing natural resources such as oil‚ coal and gas. Today‚ we live in an exceptionally demanding environment where the use of energy is growing at an alarming rate. It is vital to preserve the earth’s fossil fuels and other natural resources‚ not only for a healthier environment but also for the ability of future generations to meet their own
